Hello, sounds very interesting. I can do a js that would Table1Form.submit() with my database fields but how exactly can I get this information into PHP variables? how can I parse the resulting page from the usps site?

If you're clever with a little javascript you can take your database fields, post it into the two TEXT form fields here. Buying the database from the USPS is so expensive I think the best method is to interface with their website for free, like this below... <FORM NAME="Table1FORM" ACTION="http://www.framed.usps.com/cgi-bin/zip4/zip4inq2" METHOD=POST> <INPUT id="FormsEditField6" TYPE="hidden" NAME="Firm" VALUE=""> <INPUT id="FormsEditField7" TYPE="hidden" NAME="Urbanization"> <p>Street Address:<br> <INPUT id="FormsEditField8" TYPE="text" NAME="Delivery Address" VALUE="" SIZE=30 MAXLENGTH=40 > <p> <INPUT id="FormsEditField9" TYPE="hidden" NAME="City" VALUE=""> <INPUT id="FormsComboBox2" TYPE="hidden" NAME="State" VALUE=""> <p>Zip Code:<br> <INPUT id="FormsEditField11" TYPE="text" NAME="Zip Code" VALUE="" SIZE=10 MAXLENGTH=10 > <p> <INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="Submit" VALUE="Process" id="FormsButton2"> -- Derek Sivers, CD Baby http://www.cdbaby.net __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
